Happy Birthday Super Hero! :)

Happy Birthday Papa, I love you! :)

I know that he won't read this post because he barely goes online (still, I know that this is worth the post.) 

My Papa is a very busy man. He is busy fixing other people's electric posts somewhere in Saudi Arabia. His work is one of the most accident prone job I know but he works so that we could have a better life. I think he's been there for more than 20 years. He and mama even met in Saudi and Kuya and I were born there. 

He sacrificed a lot for us and one day, I know I can give it all back to him. Not that he's asking anything in return but when the time comes that he will retire, I want him to just relax and have fun with his true love (that's mama!) He maybe thousand miles away but he always tries to reach out to us. He would call in any random time and we talk about everything/anything under the sun. Whenever he goes home during summer, we really try to fill up the lost time. 

I'm just so proud of myself to make my father very happy during my graduation day ( I remember crying when they told me he can't attend my graduation then it was all a joke. Ugh!) I really can feel his happiness because a year before, Kuya was the one who graduated. During my brother's graduation, I saw my father standing in the center of the parent's seats and just observing and smiling. I went to him and ask him "why is he smiling to himself?' and he said that "He is very proud of my brother and he felt that it is one of his achievements too." 

I know that every kid has their own Super Hero but my father will always be Superman, Spiderman, Batman at kung ano pa man because he's THE MAN. :) 

Happy Birthday Papa! :)

The most awesome gift

I was watching TV Patrol News 3 nightss ago when they featured two sick little kids who requested for a robot and a laptop for Christmas. The little boy said "gushto ko robot yun may ilaw." and the chubby kid said "laptop (not to play games) but to chat with her mother who is an OFW.

Suddenly, I miss the little me during Christmastime, the girl who doesn't demand anything. I have my own wishes but I don't say it out loud. Any gift will do. Swear. I'm just happy to open gifts. I'm happier to see that I have a gift in my Christmas Stockings.

I don't know how I found out that Santa Claus is not true. I remember I didn't get mad and just laughed when I learned that all the gifts were bought by Tita courtesy of Mama and Papa. I even remember that Santa (hmm?) always write me a letter together with the gifts! haha.

Now, that I'm older I wish for more. I want this, I want that but I can't have it. But, beyond the material things I know that I am already a grown up. I remember when I was 16 years old, all i wished is to have a peace of mind and heart. Never mind my reason. :))

And the greatest wish is to have my Mama and Papa during Christmastime and my Birthday. I remember when Mama (first time after so many years) was here on my birthday, that was one of my happiest moments.

Eversince, I'm wishing for Papa. Do you remember when you are a kid? When you wish for a big gift? That's what I always wish for, he doesn't even have to be put in a box. I just want him, as he calls Mama to fetch him in NAIA then I would accompany her. I want that scene to happen during Christmastime. I want to have Noche Buena with Kuya, Mama, Tita and Papa. I want to sleep at Christmas Night and wake up the next day wherein my family's complete. Celebrating my birthday.

I know that would happen, not now but maybe next year? or Few years from now.
